Chapter 380 Full Moon Wine
Chapter 380 Full Moon Wine
Li Juaner was just shocked.
He asked hurriedly and carefully: "Jiang Lang, are you awake?"
Jiang Huaian's even colder voice came again: "I asked you where you went!"
As he said this, he also pinched Li Juaner's neck.
Li Juaner felt like she could hardly breathe, and hurriedly grabbed Jiang Huaian's hand, wanting him to let go, but Jiang Huaian remained indifferent.
Finally, she kept patting the bed, making noises. It was Xiaohong outside the room who heard something was wrong and rushed in. At this time, it was already dawn and the scene in the room could only be vaguely seen.
"Get out!" Jiang Huaian shouted with his neck red.
Xiao Hong knelt down quickly, shouting, "Master, Master, Auntie was worried about the trivial matters in the mansion and couldn't sleep early in the morning. I remembered that you said at the dinner table yesterday that you wanted to eat buns this morning, so I went out early in the morning to buy buns!"
Jiang Huaian was slightly stunned.
The hand that was pinching Li Juan'er loosened slightly.
"Is what she said true?" The voice was no longer as cold as before, but still full of doubt...
Li Juaner just felt that she could breathe a little better and nodded quickly.
Jiang Huaian let go of her neck with a scrutinizing look, and there was no happy expression on his face.
Li Juan'er gasped for breath and coughed so hard that tears and snot flowed out of her eyes. For a moment, she thought she had seen the door to the underworld.
I was even more afraid of Jiang Huaian.
Jiang Huaian pointed at the calming incense that had not yet completely burned out.
"What's that?"
Li Juaner opened her mouth, but she was speechless because she had just started to breathe heavily.
Xiao Hong kowtowed again and said, "Master, please don't wrongly accuse our aunt. She knows that you haven't slept well in recent days, so she bought the calming incense specially, hoping that you can sleep well."
After hearing this.
Jiang Huaian then realized that he had wronged her, and quickly hugged her in his arms, muttering, "Juan'er, are you okay? I thought you were going to leave me..."
Li Juaner was afraid of Jiang Huaian. She let him hold her but didn't dare to speak. She was scared in her heart and burst into tears instantly.
Jiang Huaian hurriedly coaxed.
"Don't cry, Juan'er. It's all Jiang Lang's fault..."
Li Juan'er buried her head and cried even harder. She had never felt so close to death. She just thought Jiang Huaian was a lunatic! An absolute lunatic!
While eating breakfast, Jiang Huaian looked at the buns on the table and felt very guilty.
After breakfast, he left and turned around to ask someone to bring a set of jewelry to Li Juaner.
This really counts as an apology at great expense. After all, the Jiang family is facing a financial crisis now.
Li Juaner looked at the jewelry on the table, played with it for a while, then looked in the mirror and saw the marks on her neck left by being strangled that morning.
Xiao Hong asked her timidly: "Auntie, are you okay?"
Li Juaner said with lingering fear: "Thanks to your cleverness this morning."
Xiaohong shook her head: "Aunt, I think we shouldn't do that again in the future... I'm really afraid that if the master finds out..." it will be the end of our lives.
Li Juaner shook her head and made up her mind: "Xiaohong, we can't stay in the Jiang family anymore. Jiang Huaian is a lunatic! He almost took my life this morning!"
After saying that, she couldn't help crying again. The scene in the morning scared her so much that she could still feel the same way now!
Xiaohong was speechless when she saw this, and just tried to comfort her not to be impulsive.
Li Juaner turned around and saw the calming incense again...
"Doesn't this incense make people sleepy? Why did Jiang Huaian wake up so early this time?"
Speaking of this, Xiao Hong didn't know either, so she asked Li Juan'er, "Could it be that Master has smelled it too many times, and the fragrance is no longer effective?"
Li Juan'er didn't say anything, but just stared at the unburned incense and frowned slightly. It should be impossible!
Moreover, when she came back this morning, she smelled the scent of the calming incense, which was somewhat different from before, and seemed not as strong as before...
"Go back and buy some more."
"Yes!"
And on the other side...
Even though Xiaohong said that, Jiang Huaian still didn't let down his guard. He called Manager Cai and asked him about Li Juaner's movements during this period.
Manager Cai thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "Auntie Li, you have been staying at home obediently recently, and you rarely go out, but..."
Jiang Huaian looked at him: "But what?"
Manager Cai replied respectfully, "But these days, I have seen Aunt Li go to the pharmacy many times and consult doctors many times. I went to ask around and it seems that they were all looking for some kind of pregnancy prescription."
"really?"
Manager Cai nodded, but Jiang Huaian still frowned slightly, because when he woke up this morning, he touched the quilt beside him and it was cold...
Rubbing his brows, he said, "Okay, you can go down."
Only then did Manager Cai turn around and leave.
……
At Jiang Weinan's house, Steward Wang trotted over to Xie Jiaojiao and said, "Young Madam!"
Xie Jiaojiao put down the pen in her hand and looked up at him: "Uncle Wang, how is the matter going?"
Steward Wang replied respectfully, "Don't worry, Madam. Jiang Huaian has already discovered something because of the change of the calming incense. He also has doubts in his heart."
"That's fine. He is a very suspicious person. As long as you give him a little clue, he will definitely get to the bottom of it!"
Steward Wang nodded and handed over another invitation.
"What is this?" Xie Jiaojiao took it puzzled. She remembered that she didn't know anyone familiar in Jiangbo City.
When her business grew bigger, although many people wanted to get to know her, she rejected them all. After all, this was in ancient times, and a woman from a wealthy family who was in public all day long would easily be criticized!
Some people invited her several times, but gave up when they couldn't see her.
Steward Wang smiled and said, "This is the full moon banquet for Boss Liu and Manager Gu's son."
Xie Jiaojiao smiled and opened it to see: "Boss Liu gave birth?"
Manager Wang nodded and talked about what happened a few days ago.
Xie Jiaojiao calculated and felt that the timing might be a little wrong. The flood occurred in July last year, and it was still some time before May. She was afraid that something might have gone wrong in the meantime!
Jiang Weinan just came back from outside with some candied fruits in his hands.
"You old man, you come to disturb my wife's rest again. Don't you know that she is getting worse and needs more rest?"
Manager Wang wanted to roll his eyes, but in the end he didn't say anything.
Jiang Weinan handed her the candied fruit in his hand and took the invitation from her.
"going or not?"
"Of course I have to go. We talked about this before. Even if I can't attend her wedding, I must attend the baby's full moon banquet."
Jiang Weinan nodded: "Then let's go."
"Uncle Wang, go ahead and do your work. Keep an eye on that side. If anything happens, let me know."
Only then did Manager Wang bow and go down.
